Tauer Perfumes 14 Noontide Petals is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2013, created by Andy Tauer. 14 Noontide Petals opens with Bergamot, Geranium, and Aldehydes, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Tuberose, and Ylang-Ylang, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Vetiver, Patchouli, and Iris. Tauer Perfumes's 14 Noontide Petals carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair, a sparkly modern twist on classic aldehydes that some adore for its effervescent floral charm, while others find it a bit too "old-lady" or overwhelmingly chemical. It's Tauer, so you know it's going to be distinctive, but be warned, your skin chemistry might have other ideas.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Noontide Petals bursts open with a dazzling, fizzy sparkle of aldehydes and bright bergamot, reminiscent of a crisp, citrusy gin and tonic. As it settles, a lush bouquet of creamy ylang-ylang, soft rose, and heady tuberose emerges, wrapped in a warm, powdery embrace of iris. The base rounds out with earthy vetiver, grounding patchouli, and a whisper of balsamic frankincense, leaving a lingering trail of sophisticated floral warmth.
